LDA City Business Bay Commercial Plots – Latest Ballot, Price & Installment Plan 2026
LDA City Business Bay is emerging as an important commercial property destination within LDA City Lahore. The latest LDA offering brought 4 Marla Business Bay commercial plots at Rs 75 lakh per Marla on a three-year payment plan, followed by computerized balloting on 9 September 2026.
This BODLA BROTHERS® market guide brings the Business Bay story together in one place — including the earlier offering, latest ballot, price history, installment opportunity, location, commercial investment considerations and links to current LDA City property rates.
Lahore Development Authority offered another batch of 4 Marla commercial plots in LDA City Business Bay through computerized balloting.
According to the official LDA advertisement, the latest Business Bay rate was Rs 7,500,000 (75 lakh) per Marla. A 4 Marla plot therefore carries an advertised base value of approximately Rs 30,000,000 (3 crore), before any applicable premium, fee or other charge.
The computerized ballot was scheduled for 9 September 2026 at 11:00 AM. The official LDA post following the draw confirmed that the computerized balloting was conducted and that 1,520 applications participated across the schemes included in the draw.
LDA City Business Bay Latest Ballot – Quick Facts
The LDA ballot price and today’s secondary-market price are not necessarily the same. Compare current LDA City commercial and residential property information before buying or selling.
View LDA City Plot Prices →What Is LDA City Business Bay?
Business Bay LDA City Lahore is a dedicated commercial property area designed to serve the growing residential population and business activity of LDA City.
Commercial property should be evaluated differently from residential property. Road access, visibility, frontage, surrounding population, parking, commercial activity and exact plot position can have a major effect on value.
Business Bay has attracted additional attention because LDA has brought commercial plots to buyers through auctions and installment-based computerized ballots rather than relying only on conventional secondary-market trading.
LDA City Business Bay Price 2026
The latest official LDA advertisement shows the 4 Marla Business Bay commercial plot rate at Rs 75 lakh per Marla.
| Category | Size | Rate Per Marla | Approx. Base Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business Bay Commercial | 4 Marla | Rs 75 Lac | Rs 3 Crore |
Rs 3 crore is the mathematical base value at Rs75 lakh × 4 Marla. The final amount payable for a particular property should be checked from the applicable LDA allotment, demand and payment documents.
LDA City Business Bay Price History – From Earlier Offering to Rs 75 Lac
Business Bay has moved through several stages during 2026. Keeping these stages separate is important because an auction price, an LDA advertised ballot rate and a secondary-market trading price do not mean the same thing.
Early 2026 – Business Bay Commercial Activity
Business Bay began attracting stronger market attention as LDA moved forward with commercial plots and auction activity. Market discussions at this stage included both 4 Marla and 8 Marla commercial categories.
Auction results varied according to the individual plot and location, so auction prices should not be treated as one fixed Business Bay market rate.
Earlier 2026 Ballot – Rs 65 Lac Per Marla
In the earlier Business Bay installment offering, 4 Marla commercial plots were offered at Rs 65 lakh per Marla.
The earlier ballot involved only 22 Business Bay plots, while the eligible applicant list recorded 688 applications, showing considerable demand relative to the number of plots offered.
September 2026 – Latest Rate Rs 75 Lac Per Marla
In the latest offering, the LDA advertisement shows 4 Marla Business Bay commercial plots at Rs 75 lakh per Marla.
Compared with the earlier Rs65 lakh per Marla offering, the later LDA advertised rate is Rs10 lakh per Marla higher. For a 4 Marla plot, that represents a difference of approximately Rs40 lakh in base advertised value.
This should be described as a comparison between two LDA offerings, rather than automatically being treated as the percentage appreciation of every privately traded Business Bay plot.
Business Bay Rs 65 Lac vs Rs 75 Lac Per Marla
| Offering | Plot Size | Rate / Marla | Approx. 4 Marla Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earlier 2026 Offering | 4 Marla | Rs 65 Lac | Approx. Rs 2.60 Crore |
| September 2026 Offering | 4 Marla | Rs 75 Lac | Approx. Rs 3.00 Crore |
LDA City Business Bay Installment Plan
The latest LDA campaign advertised these plots with payment of the price over three years. This makes Business Bay particularly relevant to investors searching for commercial plots on installments in Lahore.
The exact down payment, installment amount, due dates and other financial conditions applicable to a successful applicant should be taken from the official allotment and demand documentation issued for the relevant ballot.
Latest LDA City Business Bay Ballot – 9 September 2026
The latest computerized ballot was held on 9 September 2026. Business Bay was included together with other LDA property offerings.
The official LDA advertisement identified Business Bay as a 4 Marla commercial category at Rs75 lakh per Marla. The advertisement listed an application processing fee of Rs10,000 for this category.
LDA subsequently reported that 1,520 applications participated across the schemes included in the computerized draw.
Why the Latest Business Bay Ballot Matters
The latest ballot is important for the Business Bay market because it creates a newer official price reference and adds another group of commercial properties to the market.
It can also create secondary-market activity as successful applicants decide whether to retain their allotments, continue the payment plan or sell their interest according to applicable LDA rules.
For buyers, however, the ballot rate should be treated as a reference point, not automatically as today’s exact resale price.
Official Ballot Price vs Business Bay Market Price
There are now several prices a buyer may encounter when researching LDA City Business Bay commercial plots: auction prices, earlier LDA ballot prices, the latest LDA advertised price, seller asking prices and actual secondary-market trading prices.
These should not be mixed together.
BODLA BROTHERS® recommends identifying the property category first and then checking the exact plot/allotment, payment status, location and current market demand before quoting a tradable price.

The 4 Marla commercial plot is currently the most important Business Bay search category because it was included in both the earlier and latest installment offerings.
For investors, the smaller commercial size may provide a lower total entry cost than a larger commercial property, but the exact investment quality still depends heavily on location and commercial potential.
LDA City Business Bay 8 Marla Commercial Plots
8 Marla Business Bay commercial plots are also tracked in the broader Business Bay market. However, buyers should not automatically apply the latest 4 Marla ballot rate or installment terms to an 8 Marla property.
Always verify the exact category and applicable LDA documentation before comparing an 8 Marla commercial opportunity with the latest 4 Marla offering.
Business Bay Location & Commercial Potential
The long-term commercial potential of Business Bay depends on more than the ballot price. The growth of LDA City’s residential population, development of connecting roads, possession, accessibility and actual commercial activity will ultimately influence demand.
Investors should particularly evaluate road width, frontage, corner status, visibility, access and surrounding development when comparing Business Bay commercial plots.
Before investing in Business Bay, review LDA City sectors, development, location, possession and the wider property market.
Complete LDA City Lahore Guide →LDA City Business Bay vs Residential Investment
Business Bay commercial property serves a different investment objective from a 5 Marla, 10 Marla or 1 Kanal residential plot in LDA City.
Residential value is often influenced by construction demand, neighbourhood development and possession, while commercial value can be particularly sensitive to traffic flow, frontage, surrounding population and future business activity.
Investors who are not committed specifically to commercial property should compare both categories before deciding.
See block-wise residential categories and Business Bay commercial property information on our LDA City plot market page.
LDA City Plots for Sale & Prices →Development Charges & Outstanding Liabilities
A Business Bay buyer should calculate the total acquisition cost, not simply the seller’s demand or advertised per-Marla rate.
Check the amount already paid to LDA, remaining installments, applicable premium or fees, transfer requirements and any other liability attached to the specific property.

Is LDA City Business Bay a Good Investment in 2026?
Business Bay has several features that make it worth researching: it is an LDA commercial category, commercial plots have been brought to market through repeated LDA activity, and installment-based offerings reduce the requirement for full upfront payment.
The earlier ballot’s high number of applications relative to available plots also demonstrated strong applicant interest at that stage.
However, investment performance is not guaranteed. The better question is whether a specific Business Bay property at a specific total cost offers suitable value relative to its location, remaining payment obligations and expected commercial activity.
Buying a Business Bay Plot After Balloting
If you are considering buying from a successful applicant, do not negotiate only on the premium or profit demanded by the seller.
First establish the official base price, amount already deposited, remaining payment schedule, exact allotment status, plot identification where applicable, transfer eligibility and total outstanding liability.
That gives a more meaningful comparison between two Business Bay opportunities.
